This is a blog that will collect various links about Ehlers-Danlos Syndrome and pull them together into a quarterly newsletter. Please feel free to refer people who have EDS (or want to learn more about EDS) to this blog.

The information in the blog is organized in the form of quarterly newsletters using categories such as Blogs/Online Diaries (people talking about what it is to have EDS), Medical Articles, Disability/Legal issues, News etc. The most recent newsletter is always at the top of the page and you use the “previous entries” buttons at the bottom of each screen to scroll back to look for earlier articles. To read just the newsletters in reverse chronological order click here.

There are several places where EDS patients can locate medical information along with personal tips from fellow EDS patients. Most are free.

As we find new sources, we will update this post – so feel free to bookmark it.

Here the personal overview from one of our volunteers of what it means to have EDS. If you need to contact us you can do one of two ways: leave a comment to one of the newsletters or drop us an e-mail at: edsalert@gmail.com
